What does modem (9600) represent?

Modem (9600) refers to a data transfer rate of 9,600 bits per second, commonly associated with classic dial-up modems and legacy serial links.

What is OC768 used for?

OC768 is a high-capacity optical carrier rate used in fiber-optic backbone networks for carrier and national data transport.

Why are conversions from modem (9600) to OC768 values so small?

Because modem (9600) operates at kilobits per second rates while OC768 operates at gigabit scales, conversions yield very small fractional values.
